If Bluebeam would add a simple IF function, this would all be possible.

As it stands now, you have to export the data to Excel or Google Sheets to do that.

We were just upgraded to Revu 21, but I haven’t had the chance to even look at Cloud due to my current schedule.

I do want to dive into this, as we do do a fair amount of field work.

We shall see

It’s a Setting, well it is when you’re working with Sets anyways.

Go into your Preferences > Sets > Set Options > Open Documents: New Tab (or New Tab in front, which puts it first in your list)

Its one of the advantages with working in Sets or individual pages.
A Hyperlink essentially opens a new document, in a new tab.
I detest having to work backwards to try and find my previous page, this way its just another tab. (Of course, I’ll end up with 20-25 tabs open at once and get lost 🤣 anyways)

If I’m actually working with a full drawing package, 9 times out of 10 I’ll split my screen first, and then click the link in the second screen.

I had a newly saved template do that to me last week.

I had to save it in the default folder for it to work

I watched Erin’s presentation in XCON Anywhere and it was good.
Wasn’t able to get it scheduled in at XCON 2022, but hopefully I can catch this one.

Liz, this is awesome.

Just wish the video had sound

We got some good news a couple days ago.

After another CT Scan it appears that things are shrinking. 🙌🙏

Chemo keeps wiping out her immune system though, which is SO MUCH FUN during cold and flu season…lol.

Not sure if these count, they might be more organizationally specific.

Add your Custom Statuses
Make sure that any custom columns that you want are applied to the PDF.

Is this within a Group?

Basically what I want, is the information that is shown in the captions to be available to me in the markups list.

On a 3 point radius, I can turn on the caption for the arc angle, but that isn’t available to me (I would need to use the angle tool for that to show up. Same things with the arc length.

I’d also love it if I could take that arc length and assign it a depth. Its really the only way to properly get the area of a curved wall in Revu. Funny enough, you can assign a depth to the Diameter measurement tool, but sometimes you don’t have the whole circle.

We need better tools for curved work.

[Doug McLean]

Yeah, that’s the workaround, but why should I have to do that, when I can take the 3 Point Radius Tool, do the markup, and then turn on the captions and all that information is already there. It’s just not available to me in the markups list.

[Doug McLean]

try just using the individual pages.

[Doug McLean]

Sets is just a collection of single documents, why does everyone have such a hard time with them?

Working in single pages give you so much more flexibility. Yes it has some drawbacks when it comes to summarizing, but its just a different process.

[Doug McLean]

Just a thought Dave

You talked about working in individual pages on the MCR a little. If that’s the way you want to work, setting your Bookmarks is redundant.

I personally prefer to work with individual sheets. If you’re working in the cloud, you’re only ever working with that one page, not an entire drawing package. Its much easier to collaborate with single sheets as well, again, you only have the one sheet open, and not the whole package.

Just something to consider

[Doug McLean]

It was one of the better ones lately.

I think when they do these with those of us who work in the industry it changes the whole thing. Its less teaching, and more of a discussion.

It’s more or less a hybrid of the traditional MCR and Expresso Yourself
